Cronulla Sharks v New Zealand Warriors
The Sharks players look forward to the 80 minutes each week they can escape the ASADA circus and just play football. Unfortunately the off-field drama is taking its toll on the club who have had two extremely close matches against the Titans and South Sydney.
New Zealand are yet to win their first game of the season but may get their chance against Cronulla. Shaun Johnson had a great game last week and could be key to the Warriors opening up the Sharks defence.
Prediction: New Zealand by 8
Penrith Panthers v South Sydney Rabbitohs
The Rabbitohs have been doing Russell Crowe proud so far this season with two wins from two after a nail biting finish against the Sharks last week. The Panthers will be a test for the Rabbitohs who despite losing Luke Lewis and Michael Jennings over the off-season are still playing well and scoring points.
The Rabbitohs are dangerous in broken play and Penrith will need to keep a structured attack and complete sets to turn around a defeat against the Tigers last week.
Prediction: South Sydney by 10
